Absolutely! Be careful what you vote/ask for, you may get it.chasfm11 wrote:I have a little more compassion for the voters there. I doubt seriously if any of the politicians in CT campaigned on a platform of promoting a gun ban. Once they are in office, as here in Texas, it sometimes takes blasting powder to extract them. I was one of a group who worked tirelessly to oust one particular Texas House member from Tarrant County. At the 11th hour in that race, an appalling number of her colleagues who were supposedly supporting our protest point of view were making robo calls for her. There was almost no time for us to thwart that effort. Politicians who said that they supported us were suddenly stabbing us in the back - imagine that. Luckily, we prevailed and she lost. I suspect that CT politics are no different. Incumbency is a powerful ally. Like police and doctors, politicians close ranks quickly.Oldgringo wrote:They're yankees.

Let this be a reminder to us, BTW.
